Pointing Arrow Illusion

[Still Waters]

Mathematician Kokichi Sugihara, of Meiji University in Japan, once again proves he’s the greatest illusion inventor of our time. Instead of just creating mind-melting images, he creates real-life 3D objects that appear to ignore the laws of our universe. How can this arrow, that perpetually points right, no matter how you turn it, actually exist?

Wow, lol, that's so awesome !

That is impressive, but it's more impressive on video than IRL. Like most of these types of illusions, they only work at a specific viewing angle. Hence the stationary camera. Move the camera/viewer angle a few degrees in any direction, the illusion is ruined.

Ok I don't see an arrow but an oval. How can it be an arrow?

Very clever illusion...but once you know, games over.

Can he make my Ford look like a Ferrari when viewed at certain angles?!

Imagine a house built specifically for angle illusions.
